combining the two...who knows. The first pictures are washed out, and show lots of strikes to the face of the king, and fairly clean fields. The second images appear to show luster, and mask the strikes to the portrait. Another issue with the grading of this coin, is that it will be treated very differently by the different grading services. For instance, ICCS would grade it higher than PCGS, because ICCS values clean fields, which this coin mostly has. PCGS values a mark-free portrait, which this coin does not have.
